Ben Stokes threw the gauntlet to India when the England skipper was asked if he thought Bazball will be effective in the sub-continent.
The English team played fearless cricket and sealed an incredible comeback in the Ashes series against arch-rivals Australia with an iconic victory at The Oval in the fifth test.
They reaped dividends by sticking to the Bazball style, which involves playing heavy metal cricket right from the first ball, as they won the fifth Test by 49 runs despite rain playing spoilsport on the fourth and fifth days.
The win propelled them to the fourth spot in the WTC table while India are in the second spot after winning 1-0 against West Indies.

Can England conquer India with Bazball? Ben Stokes answers
"I remember when we beat New Zealand 3-0, (the chatter) was we couldn't do it against South Africa, (we) couldn't do it against Pakistan, (we) couldn't do it against Australia. So who knows if we can do it against India, only time will tell," Stokes said.

What did Ben Stokes say about the 2-2 comeback in the Ashes?
"I think 2-2 generally is a fair reflection of two very, very good teams going at it over a five-match series. Obviously, Australia being world Test champions leading into this series, the cricket that I think has been on show has been of the highest quality," he said.
